añjana gañjana locana rañjana gati ati lalita su-ṭhāna calata khalata puna puna uṭhi garajana cāhani baṅka nayāna
Translation

Lord Nitāi’s delightful reddish eyes eclipse the most graceful black kajjala. His movements are graceful. As He walks He stumbles and stands up again and again. He gazes with graceful curved eyes.

gaura gaura bali ghana de-i karatāli kañja nayāne bahe lora premete abaśa haiyā patitere nirakhiyā ā-isa ā-isa bali de-i kora
Translation

Chanting, “Gaura! Gaura!”, He claps His hands. Tears stream from His lotus eyes. Overcome in the ecstasy of spiritual love, He sees a fallen sinner, coaxes him with, “Come here! Come here!”, and gives him a hug.

huhuṅkāra garajana mālasāṭa punaḥ puna kata kata bhaba bikhāra kadamba-keśara janu pulake pūrala tanu bhā-iyāra bhābe mātoyāra
Translation

He roars. He strikes Hi chest. How many symptoms of ectsatic love does He manifest? His bodily hairs stand upright like kadamba filaments. He is wild in the ecstasy of spiritual love.

āgama nigama para beda bidhi agocara taha kaila patitere dāna kahe ātmārāma dāse nā pā-iyā kṛpā-leśe rahi gela pāṣāṇa-samāna
Translation

He is beyond the Agama and Nigama scriptures. He is beyond what the Vedas can see. To the fallen sinners He gives a precious gift. Atmārāma dāsa says: I never attained even a small fragment of Lord Nitāi’s mercy. That is why I remain dull like a stone.
